[Intro]
Livin' on Tulsa time

[Verse 1]
I left Oklahoma
Drivin' in a Pontiac
Just about to lose my mind
I was goin' to Arizona
Maybe on to California
Where the people all live so fine
My baby called me crazy
My mama said I'm lazy
I was gonna show 'em all this time
'Cause ya know I ain't no fool no
I don't need no more school no
I was born to just walk the line

[Chorus 1]
Livin' on Tulsa time
Livin' on Tulsa time
Well ya know I've been through it
When I set my watch back to it
Livin' on Tulsa time

[Verse 2]
Well there I was in Hollywood
Wishin' I was doin' good
Talkin' on the telephone line
They don't need me in the movies
And nobody sings my songs
I guess I'm just wastin' time
But then I got to thinkin'
Man I'm really sinkin'
And I really had a flash this time
I had no business leavin'
And nobody would be grievin'
If I went on back to Tulsa time
[Chorus 2]
Livin' on Tulsa time
Livin' on Tulsa time
Gonna set my watch back to it
'Cause ya know I've been through it
Livin' on Tulsa time
Livin' on Tulsa time
Livin' on Tulsa time
Well ya know I've been through it
When I set my watch back to it
Livin' on Tulsa time

[Outro]
Gonna set my watch back to it
'Cause ya know I've been through it
Livin' on Tulsa time
